This person is too strong but insists on eating the empress' soft rice

Chapter 124 Refusal to Marry
Not to mention that they are now fully satisfied with the status quo in terms of the price and output of papermaking, and there is no need for them to look at the face of the Thousand Islands.

So Ye Chen said bluntly: "Prince Koizumi, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you this time. We have a large land and abundant resources, and it is more than enough to make this paper. If there is a shortage of paper in Qiandao Kingdom, we can sell it." Give you some."

"It's better not to mention the matter of marriage."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, Koizumi Honda's expression on the opposite side became extremely ugly.

He originally thought that it was a sure thing, but he was rejected by Ye Chen with a few words.

At this time, he still refused to give up.

So I saw Koizumi Honda say to the Luo Hongyan: "Your Majesty Hongyan, the emperor and empress may not be very clear about the situation. Presumably, as the king of a country, you should not be arrogant?"

"I want you to ask yourself, does your country really not need the help of my Thousand Islands?"

Among the other two envoys of the Thousand Island Kingdom, someone even scolded Ye Chen directly: "As the master of the harem, it may not be appropriate to attend such a formal event, right? Please ask the empress to return to the harem." go!"

When the envoy said these words, he looked at Ye Chen with an extremely unfriendly expression.

They had long heard that the empress of the Dacha Dynasty had a humble background, so these people didn't take Ye Chen seriously at all.

However, Luo Hongyan said bluntly: "Regarding this matter, what the empress means is what I mean. I am a little sleepy. You can talk to the empress directly about the rest of the matter."

In the end, Luo Hongyan actually left the imperial study room directly.

It can be seen from this that he is still very relieved of Ye Chen.

After all, he has already seen Ye Chen's talents in various aspects in the past year or so.

Although Ye Chen's own cultivation level is not high, he is very shrewd and capable in negotiations.

After Luo Hongyan left, Ye Chen had no desire to continue talking.

So he said directly: "Three, I think we should come here first today?"

However, just when Ye Cheng wanted to turn around and leave, Koizumi Honda spoke up.

"Wait a minute, empress. Just now you said that the Dacha Dynasty has more than enough paper production. Can you sell some to me from the Thousand Islands?"

Originally, Ye Chen didn't intend to talk to the other party, but when he heard the meaning of Koizumi Honda's words, he also became interested.

It seems that the other party, the prince of the Thousand Islands, wants to make things difficult for them.

It's just that Ye Chen could vaguely feel that the opponent might be using the wrong force.

So he nodded, and then said: "That's right, I have enough paper production in Dacha Shenchao. Could it be that the Thousand Islands want to buy paper from us? If that's the case, then you have to wait a year later."

That Koizumi Honda was a little suspicious of Ye Chen's previous words.

Now, after hearing Ye Chen's words, he is even more certain that the paper output of the Great Grass Dynasty is nothing more than strong outside but capable inside.

Just Ye Chen's sentence that he can only buy it after one year shows his guilty conscience.

However, Koizumi Honda obviously did not let go of the opportunity to rectify the Dagu Shenchao.

So he said with a half-smile: "What the empress said is not a problem, and our Qiandao country is willing to increase the paper price by [-]% on the basis of the paper price that your country gives to the six major paper-making families."

"At this price, we are willing to buy 500 million taels of silver paper every year for 30 years."

Koizumi Honda's intentions are very clear.

He firmly believed that the papermaking cost of Dagou Shenchao was very high, so he wanted to take this opportunity to make another fortune from Dagou Shenchao.

As a result, Ye Chen said indifferently after hearing his words.

"Thousand Islands is also a big economic country, how can it be so picky? According to Prince Koizumi, your country can only buy 30 million taels of silver paper in 5000 years?"

Koizumi Honda's face was a little ugly after hearing what Ye Chen said.

"Then what does the empress mean?"

Ye Chen continued: "If your country is willing to purchase 30 million taels of silver paper within [-] years, we will be overwhelmed. We can also consider it. In addition, the price needs to be doubled on the basis of the six major paper-making families. OK."

After listening to Ye Chen's words, Koizumi Honda stared at him for a long time.

"Empress, are you kidding me? We buy so much paper every year, our Thousand Islands can't use it at all!"

Although Koizumi Honda said he wanted to make Ye Chen look bad, he knew it very well.

If it is true that so much paper is purchased from Dachao Shenchao every year, then the paper industry in their country will be hit hard.

However, Ye Chen didn't give the other party too many opportunities to bargain.

He just said indifferently: "I have already laid out the conditions. If Prince Koizumi doesn't have the guts to sign this contract, then there is no need for us to talk about it."

After Ye Chen finished speaking, he made a gesture to leave.

Koizumi Honda stopped him again, and then he discussed in a low voice with his two envoys.

"What do you two think about this? The prince thinks that Ye Chen is just bluffing. He wants to scare us away with such exaggerated conditions."

"Prince, according to the old minister's opinion, even if the price is doubled, they will definitely not be able to produce such high-quality paper."

"You mean the prince can sign this contract?"

"Prince, you can try again, try to talk to Ye Chen about the quantity and price of paper, if they really plan to make money from this deal, Ye Chen will definitely let go, otherwise they must be bluffing .”

That Koizumi Honda felt that what his courtier said was reasonable.

So he said to Ye Chen: "Empress, our Thousand Islands really want to buy paper, but the quantity and price you mentioned..."

Ye Chen directly interrupted Koizumi Honda's words: "This palace has made it very clear, and the conditions will not change."

"Wu Xiang, since this matter cannot be discussed properly, then send Prince Koizumi and the others away."

"Wait a minute, empress, this deal was done by the Thousand Islands!"

Just when Ye Chen had just stepped out of the transport room, the voice of Koizumi Honda came over.

Ye Chen didn't stop at his feet.

He just said indifferently: "If Qiandao Nation sincerely wants to buy it, then you all have to draw up a contract, and then come to Bengong. I'm going to take a nap first."

Originally, when Koizumi Honda said he would agree to the deal, he still had some doubts in his heart.

But now seeing the back of Ye Chen leaving resolutely, he is full of confidence.

Because no matter how you look at Ye Chen, his performance just now does not look like he can make money from this transaction.
